150 stunning full color and B&W images. In any case, this is a complete book, filled with text and images, taking the reader back to one of the most exciting moments in Elvis' career. Go behind closed doors and learn the backstory behind what led to Elvis' triumphant return to live performance. Due for release in August. Pre-Order Elvis : Vegas '69.

Details of the Multimedia-Box-Set 'Dixieland Delight'

Praytome Publishing have released details of their Multimedia-Box-Set (By Bud Glass and Praytome Publishing). Released in cooperation with the Follow That Dream 2-CD set, Dixieland Delight which features concert performances from May 31, 1975 and June 1, 1975 in Huntsville, Alabama. With so much information about the shows and hundreds of different photos that cover the performances, it would not have been fair to squeeze the existing material into a single book with 144 pages. So the production crew came up with the idea of a package that absolutely deserves the expression of 'a true collector's item', The Multimedia-Box-Set.
